The current rate of new home construction in the UK cannot keep pace with inner-city population growth ; not only are not enough houses being built , but space restrictions in inner cities also prevent new developments . A new home built today would have to last 1000 years at current replacement rates . Without new housing , people in the UK will have to make the most of the existing housing stock .
How can homeowners in cramped , urban housing get in on the Outdoor Living trend ? A simple solution offered by Azpects Ltd is EASYClickBase , a synthetic sub-base that significantly reduces the traditional ‘ dig-out ’ part of the installation process for patios , paths , and driveways . Early feedback shows that for a 50m2 patio EASYClickBase requires an excavation of around 2-4 tonnes and just 2-5 tonnes of a fine replacement aggregate depending on site conditions . Traditionally , this would require the excavation of 16 tonnes of waste by-products , and the import of 16-20 tonnes of traditional subbase aggregates , requiring either heavy machinery or a significant amount of labour .
Several early adopters of EASYClickBase have reported trimming day ’ s labour off the expected completion time while giving their clients the garden they have always wanted .
EASYClickBase is lightweight and easy to carry , making it easy to install even with restricted access . The reduced dig out makes wastage less of an issue for tight streets that lack space for a large skip , as smaller skip bags can be removed by a flatbed vehicle instead .
Manufactured from 100 % recycled ABS plastic , any offcuts of EASYClickBase tiles can be recycled again , further reducing waste and improving the sustainability of hard landscaping projects .
If lockdown taught us anything , it is how important outdoor spaces are for our physical and mental wellbeing . With a significant percentage of the UK workforce expecting to continue to work from home at least part-time , it seems likely that investment in hard landscaping will only continue .
